Hey first off i want to say that it IS NOT finished. im going to make the needles red when i get the time and motivation. Im also swaping all the interior lights to blue leds ( steering wheel, HVAC, lock switch and window switches)

How-to: https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/how-guide-43/how-change-cluster-hvac-control-window-door-lock-led-205878/

 

looks cool!

wouldn't that be too much blue , like kinda distracting?

 

it will all dim just like factory so i think ill be ok.

 

that looks pretty sexy. how did you do it?

 

just swapped the stock lights out for LEDS. it only take a few min if you can solder good. Now i just have to finalize it so the needles atleast light up. not too concerned about redline and empty fuel.

 

okay. Where would I buy some leds to do this?

 

That looks great. I would love to do this to my interior but I'm way too lazy. I'd probably make everything white and just have the gauges red.

 

wait what happened to the DIC?

 

looks really good

 

I was just getting an idea what the guages would look like on a power supply. the DIC along with all the other warning lights ect.

I just bought some blue 12 volt LEDs off of ebay. i will show pictures once im all set with it and am happy. I may decide to do a how to with the HVAC controll head and the steering wheel controls. the lock and window switches look pretty self explanitary.

 

Heres a finsihed cluster pic Red line is a little dim but ill deal.

fixed, that looks damn good

 

Lol i was jsut fixing that i was like what happened? lol. Anyways I did get pics of the heater control head and will post those up later in a how-to. Should i create a how to thread or just go off of this one?

 

make a how-to and add a link to it in here..

 

Too much blue for me. But if you changed the needles and fixed the redline itd look good!

 

so im assuming you got the led kit from the vendor on here?

 

I did all the lights on the inside of my car red. I didn't do the speedo though. I submitted a "how to" on it, but I'm still waiting for an approval. It cost me like $2.00 to do all of them too

Looks really good by the way too OP

 

No, i bought all my leds off line. The steering wheel LED's are small (2mm by 1.4mm by 1.4mm) surface mount type. I used all 3mm water clear super bright LED's for the cluster, heater control, and door switches.

Do they make a kit or something in the vendor area I've never looked?

 

yah black cat custom makes led cluster kits

 

Yeah I just went there now. They are $35!!!! I spent 21 dollars shipped for all my LEDs for doors, cluster, and HVAC. I also just submitted a how-to hopefully they approve and mabe it could be used along with there kit if others prefer to buy it.

 

nice can u direct me to the leds u purchased? im looking into doing this myself

 

http://www.led-switch.com/ but i bought mine off of wbay from this same guy http://cgi.ebay.com/12-Volt-3mm-Blue...item2c532be779

 

thanks bro. how hard is it to remove the cluster? i dont want to screw up to the point wherre my speed doesnt register on the cluster

 

very simple its 6 screws and a few snap in trim pieces. if you just plug the cluster in with key off with the needles off the cluster the motors will reset to zero. so in the end of the day its pretty much impossible to have inacurate gauges

 

that looks real good, wanting to do this later!
